Posting this over from the last thread.

If they make the Dark or Lord of Hollows endings canon, I'd like to believe that the Gods would become even more like the dragons in the eyes of the hollows.

>Faith magic (god worship) is considered taboo and heretical because the gods kept the dark/hollows out of power in the first place
>People study faith in hopes of becoming more like the gods
>The descendants of gods need to live in hiding, protected and worshipped by their secretive followers.

Perhaps somewhere along the line, the stories of old will become mixed up, and crossbreeds and dragons will be considered on the same level as the old gods.

I find it odd how "angels" would be considered heretical in Lothric. What were the angels? Why would creatures commonly associated with light be considered wrong?

Could the angels be something like the Darklurker from Dark Souls 2?

To use? I think magic, effective? I guess pyro, faith is ok, dark kinda sucks, I've gone throught he game and ng+2 with all except dark, still doing that one.
>>
>>144722705

Ranged is viable, if not a little monotonous. You basically do a quality build with Composite for close range, Dragonrider for sniping, and Pharis' for bosses (WA helps with big targets). Hawk Ring/Feather Arrows help keep damage at range at a premium. Onislayer isn't bad either.

Crossbows are too weak and slow except for Avelyn, which is annoyingly ammo hungry. Although the new patch should make it much more fun to use!

Playing with no melee at all really changes how you approach the game and I enjoyed it, although I might dabble in pyromancy if I decide to do it again, just for variety and to help make some bosses and areas less tiresome.

>>144723262
Thanks! Yeah, kind of getting tired of melee, so I figured I would try a ranged or magic build, and from your response and another anon's response, I see that both are viable.
>>
>>144723262

This shit will be way more viable if they really do up the max carry ammo. Hopefully they phrased it correctly and it's not just an increase to your storage box.

MLGS is great
estoc and darkswords still do stupid high damage

i assume the autosummon covs have improved but are still terrible, already got my swordgrass/ears/dregs so haven't bothered with it since

dueling is ok because people seem pretty likely to use interesting weapons (atleast at SL100), invasions are almost always ganks so invade places like Archdragon and have drakeblood/havel blow them up

Hi there!

You seem to have made a bit of a mistake in your post. Luckily, the users of 4chan are always willing to help you clear this problem right up! You appear to have used a name when posting, but your identity has nothing at all to do with the conversation! Whoops! You should always remember to stop using your name when the thread it was used for is gone, unless another one is started! Posting with a name when it isn't necessary is poor form. You should always try to post anonymously, unless your identity is absolutely vital to the post that you're making!

Now, there's no need to thank me - I'm just doing my bit to help you get used to the anonymous image-board culture!

>>144725142
Prisoners chain is a good ring, if you have low VIG. At high levels of VIG diminishing returns start to kick in, which combined with extra damage dealt to you makes prisoners chain not worth it. At high levels of VIG ring of favour +2 and life ring +3 are the best choices for increasing your health, because they add a certain procentage of your total health and do not directly increase vig.

Give me some weapon suggestions for a SL 20 build please. People are a bit panicky sometimes and just run away a lot, so need a good catching up weapon, been using pole and estoc with some firebombs. Then there's the issue of fighting 2-3 people and getting stunlocked, is there a point to get some hyper armor weapon for this? I can't invest too much into str for the bit fat weapons (started Mercenary).
I'm also looking for a high crit weapon for ripostes, what's good with not insane stat req?

Thought that it might scale down your physical damage, so if you applied magic to a sword and hit an enemy that is immune to magic you would do less damage than if you had just hit with a basic sword.

that work with infusing the weapon, but only because it would lower the physical damage output. are you sure you didn't mean infuse? it's what you do at andre's. buff is what you do with spells or resins

This doesn't add up. The guy seems to be in his early 20s and the invader is rolling too far for his supposed setup. I don't think Havel's would give him that much carry weight.

Lothric Knight Long Spear is actually really good. The poise increase prevents me from getting staggered. Really useful against R1 shitters.
>>
>>144730315
The only piece of heavy armour he had was the chest piece, and then he probably had Steel +2, Havels +2 and maybe FaP +2 so he could easily be below 70

Guys how do you cosplay eygon carim in lvl 80? I never get the stats right
>>
>>144730413

Pretty sure the poise still doesn't do shit in this game, that said yes it is amazing once you realize that the true power of it is the R2, not the R1. It's one of the longest reach attacks in the game, if not the longest, 1H or 2H doesn't matter.

Also the running R1 charge isn't even that bad if you know when to use it properly. Basically the WA charge take a little while with an animation before running in, but with L2 R2 you can run much farther than a running R1 and do more damage. The running R1 mini-charge is good because it's instant: you immediately go into the running charge attack, no startup animation. It's useful because I usually do what I call "counterthrust fishing" where I'll run at people to try and bait them to swing, circling back just out of their range and then trying to R2 them in the middle of their attack animation. I also throw in some running R2's even against people with no parry tool, the tracking and distance is actually quite good so I never get punished for it. When people get used to the counterthrust fishing you can surprise them with a running R1 sometimes and fuck their day up, it's great when used tactically.

Oh also the WA charge has hyper armor, something to keep in mind. They can only either parry it (but you never charge into a parry item anyways) or get out of the way. They could block it too of course but I've guardbroken any medium shield that has cared to try. Also offhand rapier/estoc is essential imho, and I switch between 2H and 1H throughout the match (mostly 2H so the estoc surprises the shit out of people when it comes out).

Good to see some love for my favorite weapon in the game though. I feel like it's really underappreciated, people don't know how to use the WA and running R1 properly or they R1 spam, get parried, and think the weapon is trash. It's definitely a weapon that will reward you once you learn how to play properly with it, patience and outspacing people, counterthrust fishing, etc.

Those clothes ain't cute in the slightest. And moving those 5 points is dumb because they were slightly boosting cast speed while also boosting weapon damage. Moving them anywhere else gives far less of a return, and giving it up for Toxic Mist is just retarded.

Straight Swords are OP in Dark Souls 3, not so much in DaS1.

-Make sure you attack every chest you come across, especially ones from Sen's Fortress onward, and make sure you never get hit by them.
-Blocking is worthless unless you're using a greatshield, which requires a lot of strength, which you shouldn't dump points into unless you're using a weapon that scales off of strength.
-Explore around firelink shrine a lot, you'll come across a talisman for free which you can use to cast miracles to give you a huge boost of healing early on.
-There's nothing wrong with exploring the graveyard, just don't progress too far and if you find a bonfire in a cave, don't rest at it unless you want to be stuck behind some tough enemies for a long time.

If you're looking for advice on Dark Souls 3, just play Knight and use the same weapons and armor until you beat the game. [Spoiler]Seriously[/spoiler]
>>
>>144737794

Explore, even if it kills you go back to get your souls and then explore further

Losing souls doesn't matter anywhere near as much as it feels like, don't be afraid of dying

Maybe the Great Club but I can't really get strength to 28, but maybe there's no point to use it 1 handed anyway. The Spiked Mace is kinda neat and I'd be able to use it 1H as well but I think the weapon is a bit weaker.

I expect I could win without an unfair advantage if I got gud, but I don't particularly care for fair fights anyway, so there's not much incentive for me.

Ganking invaders with friends is fun for about 5 minutes, I'd rather be invading the unknown as a purple and seeing what happens, be it in my favour or against. There's just as many hosts who refuse to accept the fact that I'm not hostile to them and put me down anyway, since they've generally got friends with them and I've purposefully unaligned myself from everyone.

I never get summoned as a friendly purple, any tips for that?
>>
>>144739985
I wouldn't call it best. It's got a minimal increase in physical defense and less stability.

Assuming I'm about equally likely to get hit with split elemental or straight physical (and virtually never see dark or take direct elemental to the shield save for maybe MLGS), that means the blocking value in an unleveled (because I'm going off a wiki) iron round shield is

(split average + pure physical)/2
( (44+38+19+67*3)/6 + 67 )/2 =
58.66

A site like fextra is going to say 40 because it just adds all the damages up and divides them by 5 instead of considering some more common than others

the llewlyn is 65.66 by that same reasoning, so you're getting around an average of 7 more defense (defense as in "defense you'll actually use") for a solid extra point of weight and a wee bit less stability.

Overall it kinda just depends on what you want, though for partial parries stability is meaningless.

What you mean is that you can't beat players on even footing, so you have to beat them with the numbers game and character setup.

>inb4 everyone uses the same weaopns and armor hurrr duuuuuur
It's just not effective or plausible. If you are trying to buff, you can't switch weapons & can only have 1 body buff active. In DS1 you only had 2 weapon slots on each hand - can't even run W1/Glove/Bow+Shield/Chime/Staff. Even if you could; switching between spells, items, & weapons is going to start bogging you down.

Soul Level is nothing but a superiority complex meme and supporting it is Tumblr-tier degeneracy.

I go in with the intention of aligning with the host, but if something interfered with that, like the host not trusting me, over-zealous phantoms or the host using a dark sword, then I have to change plans.

what does your rebuttal even have to do with this final strawman you've proposed here? Are you just saying that due to weapon switching removing buffs, people will be incentivised to not load up on numerous weapons even if SL is unlimited? That's invalid since barely anyone buffs anyway.

You mean looking up the current best builds and using a program another anon has written to make sure you can *barely* equip your armor/weapon so you can have the health advantage over other same-level players? O-ok.

>implying it isn't about feeling superior and speshial snowflaking Tumblr-ing

So tell me anon - since stats softcap at 40 and you can't hold every weapon at once: What is the reason for Soul Level other than
"Ha ha noob don't you know how to do your stats right at this specific level? yeah, we'd be on fair ground if we both leveled up, but I like having more health and damage output than you!"

Additionally, this SL meme makes it entirely unfun to PvP.
>spend entire game getting attached to character, have lots of options and tools
>can't use it because lol SL meme

Finally, SL memeing encourages the use of CE, since nobody wants to play the game 10x through so they have 1 character with a dagger, 1 with a sword, 1 with magic, 1 with other magic, 1 with other other magic, 1 with that 2lb heavier sword so you had rebuild everything, etc. etc.

Is there a reason some attacks will stun me for a lot longer than others?

Most of the hits I take I can roll out between two hits, especially if the hits come from slower weapons. But every so often even though I have plenty of stamina, the stun seems to be drawn out and I can't roll out of the animation like normal.

I've been smeared across the floor a couple times now today because of this and I want to fix it.

A lot of games, this series included, will upscale the size of some monsters to show off the design, make them easier to read and give off an atmosphere that the character you're fighting is powerful and imposing. You know those ordinary-sized dudes who, because of the situation or their sheer badassery, make you feel like you're two feet tall and they're some kind of giant? It's that, but visually represented.

Most humanoid NPCs that aren't explicitly listed as giants are probably human-sized canonically.

It's absolutely fair ground because you can be retarded and still pull off the basic math required. I mean look at you: you're using the word "program" as though it were some scary computer buzzword only the rich elite could grasp. Calculating your equipload by hand isn't hard. You've got a base 40 points plus however much vitality you have, then you just need to multiply that by one plus however much your rings add. Bam, that's your equipload. If you want to see how much space you can use without fatrolling, multiply it by 70%. It's not hard. If anything, online calculators make it even more fair, since actually disabled people like you now have the tools available.

>Finally, SL memeing encourages the use of CE
Who cares? That's not even an option on all systems, and if they're just getting equipment I'm going to be none the wiser either way.

>nobody wants to play the game 10x through so they have 1 character with this and that and this
but noone does that, most meta builds still have the ability to swap out weapons.

>So tell me anon - since stats softcap at 40 and you can't hold every weapon at once: What is the reason for Soul Level other than
>"Ha ha noob don't you know how to do your stats right at this specific level? yeah, we'd be on fair ground if we both leveled up, but I like having more health and damage output than you!"

>yeah, we'd be on fair ground if we both leveled up
What, you mean if you went to 99 in each stat? Because even then, there are still ways to pick better equipment. You whole question is built off of the assumption that somehow going to absurdly high levels with zero decision making on the part of the player is "more fair".

The reason why you think everyone around you has a superiority complex is because you're actually just an idiot. I assure you, you'll see this in more aspects of your life than videogames.

How? Twinking comes strictly from how matchmaking works. People call SL 20/30 "twink meta" because you can invade unleveled people there. That's not something meta players agree on, it's just how the game was built.

No, it's a way for you win over players that you are "supposed" to beat.

Somebody is new to the game and wants to try out something new? Welp, time to restart or forever be at a disadvantage because lol those points should be in your health, duuuuuuh.

You have to to read on the widipedia and have memorized exactly how every armor weighs/stats so you can exactly put your carry weight at juuuuust so; so you can have the good roll while still maximizing your health.

Because of the 40 softcap, there is no real reason people can't make 1 character that is capable of swapping equipment. But SL memers lower that number artificially so they can hold an advantage based on build setup and not on the ability to play the game.

It goes to further reduce variability on building characters. Why in god's green earth would you level up your Str to play with a strictly shittier weapon than the Dark Sword when those are a waste of points?

In essence, anyone who plays with SL memers are helping to ruin the Singleplayer aspect of the game; as you are expecting everyone to start with Le Best Class, go straight to Le Best Weapon, go to Le Soul Level, then quit playing SP.

>It goes to further reduce variability on building characters. Why in god's green earth would you level up your Str to play with a strictly shittier weapon than the Dark Sword when those are a waste of points?
Why would someone who's unrestricted use a 40+ str weapon anyway for anything outside of screwing around? And furthermore, if you actually think the dark sword is the meta, then you really just don't know what you're talking about. The only thing SL hurts is bad starting classes, but your starting class has virtually no impact on how the game goes anyway, so it's not a big deal.

It's called panicking.

They want the souls, they want the item and they want the win. They thought they would look cooler if they played nice and tried to be fair, but once they know they're not going to win by their own merit they decide to cheese it for their precious loots.

This is what happens when we let "the ends justify the means" shitters breed. People like those types are born.

Yeah. It's basically an Estoc with slightly longer range, slightly lower damage and two WA's.

It was never useful in pve.
WoG's damage output wasn't worth using in pve in DaS1 because you'd just kill things faster with a real weapon mashing R1. It was only good because the lightning fast cast and massive AoE made it easy as hell to land damage in pvp, and any damage in pvp matters.

In 2 it was purely an instantkill gimmick for baiting stupid players in pvp, and used almost exclusively by CE kiddies.

There are a handful of them but outside the soulbrandt shitters, none of them ever get many viewers so they stay way down in the listings.

A lot of the bigger pvp streamers agreed that DaS3's current state isn't really worthwhile so they stream it a lot less than they streamed DaS2. I suppose that sort of activity will pick up as the game gets more patches.

Don't force events as a regular thing.

The gladiator one lasted for about a day before it kicked the shitter, and even during it people threw the theme away and went with whatever. Give it time, and when people will get bored enough to actually want the event, then it'll happen

See http://www.strawpoll.me/10408527/r
Notice how the first event poll got as many posts as "Fuck off for a while".

If you're deadset on having another Event, consider at least making it a month from now instead of a week or two.

>Engaging the gankers when you're the only invader
Just fuck around somewhere for a minute or so, if the host's used finger then you can have 2 invaders and 3 faithfuls

>>144758823
Using dried finger lets you summon a third phantom
>>
>>144757986
Yeah you're probably right, I can always respec if I feel like I lack some endurance later on.
Is lightning resin the best to keep the split damage to 2 or is it stronger with other resins?

Would it be retarded to infuse the brigand twin daggers with bleed to keep in the lineup for throwing people off in pvp?

5v4 in the invaders favour, Anal Lando and the Swamp are the best places to shit on ganksquads because you outnumber them with time
>>
>>144758994
Lightning resin is the best, yeah.
The natural lightning damage is high enough to overcome the player flat defense hump, which means all of the resin's bonus damage translates directly to damage against a player.

Think of it this way:
Lets say a player has 80 flat lightning defense and the axe does 100 lightning damage.
Normally, only 20 lightning damage will sneak past that defense to actually apply to that character. Now lets say that a resin adds 100 damage. If you were to apply a fire resin to your weapon, that'd be 100 damage vs their 80 fire defense, so your weapon would now deal 20 lightning and 20 fire. However, if you use a lightning resin, it'd be 100 damage added directly to your lightning damage, so you'd go up from 20 to 120.

The numbers are just out of my ass, but they illustrate the mechanics at play here.

Me? Nothing.

Oh, wait, do you think there's only one person you're responding to?
>>
WELL THAT DID A LOT MORE DAMAGE THEN I EXPECTED
>>
>>144759005
No. You need about 10 L1s to actually trigger bleed against another player, which is so bad they can basically ignore your status effect entirely.

I forgot I had so many

I just woke up
>>
>>144759542
Who goes for parries with a medium shield?
>>
>>144759532
i never parry unless im invading
so i dont see hornet stabs very often, i didn't expect that

SHIELDS ARE BAD
>>
>>144759427
You can't have more than 1 friendly phantoms in either of those areas because the game reserves the other two slots for defender phantoms.
>>
>>144759542

One fun way to test a parryfisher is to just not attack for about ten seconds and watch them spam the whole time.
>>
>>144759724
I AM BAD

FOR NOT ASSUMING

THAT WAS A HEAVY ATTACK

AND NOT ROLLING

Is there any piece of outfit that increases your pyromancy damage like that fairy crown for sorcerers?
>>
>>144759726
That's not true though, unless sunbros are considered defender phantoms because I've invaded many 4-man ganksquads in Irythill

>>144759506
Well they would be paired with a stronger bleed weapon. It would just be something to equip randomly for the quickstep to get some quick combos and hopefully get them panicking

Quick Question.

I am seeing no NPC summon signs near Vordt. I killed the master, but he is not there. Nor is that other lion dude. I am embered so idk what the problem is.
>>
>>144761285
embered?
>>
>>144760626

Tried a homeward bone? Leaving the area should have the same effect but you never know.
>>
>>144761356

Yeah. I even killed myself, returned and embered right there.

Quickstep is basically worthless against anything smaller than a greatsword. You can only actually quickstep in and apply pressure against big weapons with long recovery. Against anything else, they can just mash R1 and your quickstep can't do shit.
>>
>>144761463

Hey cockface, Im trying to summon the master to kill the Dancer early. You need to calm down.

Well clearly I'm not going to fuck with someone using a ss/cs or anything like that with quickstep. It's just something to mix up the flow when appropriate
